We are honored to share that Playa Cativo Hotel has been recognized once again in Tripadvisor’s® 2026 Travelers’ Choice® Awards Best of the Best, a distinction reserved for the top 1% of properties worldwide.
This year, our secluded eco-luxury retreat in Costa Rica’s Golfo Dulce has been awarded in three remarkable categories:
No. 7 – Luxury Hotels, Costa Rica
No. 7 – Luxury Hotels, Central America
No. 6 – Small & Boutique Hotels, Central America
What makes this recognition especially meaningful is that it is based entirely on the reviews and ratings shared by travelers over the past year. It reflects the genuine experiences of our guests — from moments of quiet connection with nature to the personalized hospitality that defines every stay at Playa Cativo.
This award is a celebration of our dedicated team, our commitment to thoughtful luxury, and the guests who continue to choose, support, and share their memories with us.
To everyone who has been part of the Playa Cativo journey: thank you. Your words, trust, and experiences make this recognition possible.
We invite you to explore what makes Playa Cativo so exceptional through the voices of those who have journeyed here.
